The Vicks are idiots


Being a born and bred Atlanta sports fan you get used to certain things. Things like losing streaks, poor drafting procedures, losing top free agents, never getting top free agents, while still always finding that silver lining in that proverbial cloud of death, that hangs over most of our sports franchises. However, in the case of Michael Vick there is no silver lining...its more of a doo doo brown.
Whether you call him Mike Vick, the Michael Vick Experience (NIKE), or Ron Mexico at the end of the day it all adds up the same, Michael Vick = F'ing idiot. In fact after extensive research, I have concluded that in Swaziland where the Vick blood line traces back to in Africa, the name Vick does in fact mean F'ing idiot or taint face in SeSwati the national language. So can we really blame Mike for any of his actions? it's hereditary.

It boils down to genes and luck ladies and gentlemen. We all put our name on a piece of paper, throw it in God's gigantic Braves hat, and in the end some of us are winners, and some are losers in the genetic lottery. Vick is an exceptional case, because although he is clearly blessed with unfathomable athletic ability, He also seems to have been too busy fighting dogs, or contracting herpes to stand in line when the brains were passed out. I mean it's almost textbook Vick Behavior, always jumping the gun and never patient enough to check down to the open tailback, or wait and see how things develop down field.

Originally I thought Marcus, Michael's brother was the only loser in the Vick family. It has now become clear that somewhere in the Vick genetic code, there is a gene for overall lack of common sense, and being an ass clown. It was reported today that the FEDS are digging up Vick's backyard or should I say "bone yard" in Virginia, where they expect to find more than 30 dog carcases. To be fair although this is a felony the ONLY reason the feds are involved is because Vick is a celebrity. I'm not advocating abuse of animals in fact i hope Vick is severely punished for this, but facts are facts. As for how it effects the dirty birds this year we will have to wait and see. If there is a trial it will be long and drawn out and the ball probably won't even get rolling till some time after the Super Bowl.
